—It is clear that now the work on all projects slowed down somewhat. Nevertheless, what's new in the profession?
- What's new? With the director Alexei Andranian, we work on the television series "Ivan Grozny", where I fulfill the role of Dmitry Savitsky - the brother of the king. This is one of the dramatic events in my life (laughs). Since the scenario is drama, a serious biographical history, heavy, difficult. Incredible amount of terrible events. And from the positive, lungs and for the soul - this is with Anton Maslov. We remove the series called "Vampires of the Central Strip", where Mikhail Olegovich Efremov participates. And the whole makeup is beautiful: Tatyana Dogileva, Alexander Ustyugov, Misha Gavrilov, Katya Kuznetsova. This is a cheerful story, entertaining, quite calculated for family viewing. As for theatrical layouts, now we rehearse with Valery Sarkisov, a modern play, which is called the "stop" of the author Irina Tanunina. We play it with Zhenya Prog, Anna Hilkevich and Anna Star'shenbaum. As for the work, this is the case.
—Do you put money at the head of the corner, or if you like the role, can you play for free?
- Of course, I can and for free, but, again, with amendments. If this is some imputed temporary framework, a cool story, a good team, then I agree. This happens more often with copyright projects, short films when fans with burning eyes are going. Connect you, charge and infect - then, of course, this is possible. I think so can say any of my colleague.
—In general, the main thing for you in work?
- For me, the main thing in the work is its presence (laughs). You will not believe.
—Partner that you do not like is your attitude to it?
- There was no such life in my life. It did not happen such that I did not like a partner from a professional point of view. There were some moments when people, let's say, were a little annoyed by our behavior. But again, this is irrelevant profession of the actor. For example, excessive hobbies on the set by their mobile phone. These actors can work perfectly, turn on on time, perform the tasks. But it happened that they were taking. I have a state of mercury, I'm trying to concentrate, and next man is completely far away, in another place. And then you need to repeat, it is once again to settle, because he picked something with the phone buttons. It happens, but the profession does not concern. I somehow lucky on partners.
—And your attitude to your partner is different if it is a man or a woman?
- Well, we all know that there is a very big difference between a man and a woman (laughs). And on the set I, as a man, of course, is natural and more pleasant to look at a beautiful woman than a beautiful and talented man's partner. In a sense, it is true that when we are in work, on the site we are some kind of useless. We are only partners, we are artists, we are actors without relative division by sexual sign.
—Do you have real friends among colleagues in the workshop?
- Of course have. What is far to walk - Pasha is a wooden, my relative is Kum and the nearest friend. Alex Dubas, a long-time friend, however, I don't know if it is possible to call him a colleague on the workshop. I have excellent relationships with Vanya Stubunov. With the directors with whom I worked, I still have excellent relationship to this day. In our profession, good people prevail. True, it happens and otherwise, but I am lucky.
—You used to say that you have more negative characters like today?
- As today? I do not know, it's hard to say. Now, the saint swung in "Ivan Grozny" (laughs). Wire everything else. In the "vampires" I also play a positive character. Of the two - two, from one hundred percent - one hundred percent of positive material. This is for a second. So, somewhere equally, probably (laughs).
—And who is more interesting to play for you?
- It is always interesting to play a characteristic hero than just some kind of lover hero, a bright positive character. At the villains, it is often brighter in itself. And it can be brought brighter. Again, it is not only my opinion. I'm just lucky, I trust me to play and villains, and Dobryakov.
—Is there a favorite director?
- It seems to me that the floor of Thomas Anderson, the Brothers Jonathan and Christopher Nolani can be applied for this title. In fact, there are many of them. And to identify someone alone - it's like choosing your favorite color. This is the taste of the mood every second, I think the directors are the same.
- Many want to play in Hollywood, how are you with this desire?
- Well, how? In theory, probably, it would be a cool experience. But I can not say that I think about it. That this is some kind of my hidden dream. And, thank God, I have something to play here. And most importantly - for whom. Therefore, I have no such ambition.
Theater or movie?
—Do you make a difference between work on the stage and on the set?
- Casting platform and theater scene are two diametrically opposing gaming spaces for me. They are the same different as birds and fish. And if on the set I can compare myself with the fish, because this world, because of my many years of experience, I am familiar to me, is understandable and close, the theater is largely someone else's territory for me. Therefore, the differences are obvious and in terms of internal self-dedication, and in the technique of the game. For example, in the movie there are a lot of text literally whispering and then, on the sound, we refine this story if necessary. In the theater, such a story will not pass.
And then, the theater is a much more detailed phenomenon. And the profession of theatrical actor, of course, closer to the profession of a psychologist, psychoanalyst. This is all concerns digging in the subtle inner spiritual world of man.
—What do you like more?
- It's hard to say that more like. This is how to compare the bike and scooter. Different things. Here you go and go there, but in different ways. I do not know, but from time to time it happens when you get tired of movies, and at that moment some story suddenly appears associated with the theater. Although I repeat, this is not a frequent holiday in my life - or not a holiday, I do not know (laughs). These are absolutely different things, so I can not say what is more stronger.
— And what more makes money?
- Ha, of course, cinema. Although the actors who have 10-15-18 performances of entrepreneurs (I emphasize this number) per month, earn very well, very much. At least, not as artists of the repertoire theater, which serve even in the troupe of such theaters as the "contemporary", "Lenk" or "MCAT". But in some theaters that exist on state subsidies, actors are relatively high relative to other salaries.
—And if you take the theater, the fact that closer for you - repertoire or entrepreneurs?
- If repertoire, then they can be counted on the fingers of one hand. And, of course, this is a matter of earnings. Then, repertoire theater repertoire. In some love when the artist is removed, and in some prohibit. Everything decides Khukruka. In this case, entreprepacy leaves.
Family affairs
- What are the relationship with former spouses? You were married to actresses Ravzane Kurkova, Evgenia Katureovitsky, today in marriage again with actress - Catherine Stem.
- Everybody knows each other. Communicate with each other, and sometimes they transmit each other our common children. Is it not happiness?
—How do you manage to keep friendly relationships with everyone?
"The secret is not there, because it does not only succeed, but also themselves too." So coincided. Somehow it is humanly everything is easier to solve. Without clarifying relationships. Moreover, we all play for one team. Why spoil your life to each other? Somehow all this understands.

—But in general, how do you think, why do people begin to find out the relationship, swaying?
- You need to work out these heavy anchors that pull to the bottom. Just need to be able to talk. And, most importantly, forgive.
—How do you raise your sons - Tikhon from the second marriage and steppa - from the third? What is the main thing?
- Oh, actually so many main. Of course, they will be disappointed in people. But I really wanted them to believe them. They believed that good always wins evil. No matter how trivially sounded. It seems to me that it is so important for children and for adults - see this light at the end of the way. I want them to think positively and knew that it was great and cool. So that they lived by enjoying. But what is important, how they will do it, we will talk about it a little later and another time (smiles).
—What qualities should be vaccinated since childhood? Or do you believe in predestination?
- I have learned me from childhood to physical work, for which I am grateful to my parents. Since childhood, they took me to the cottage, where I helped them dig a potato, carry buckets with the earth, I was taught to work in a workshop with a tool. Labor always enlisters. Proceeds need to teach children necessarily.
—Sons are similar in nature on you?
"The eldest looks like, but calmer, the younger is also like a little, but heard." That's how (laughs).
—And you know in their ourselves?
- I will find out in their behavior of a woman from my family: my mom, my wife's mother, my wife, and I recognize each other in them. Incredible how they are sometimes similar.
—Who do you want to see them when they grow up?
- Just happy people. Here I want to see them. And relative to the profession, they themselves decide.
—Many actors do not want their children, especially sons, choose acting profession. Do you have anything to do with it?
- I want them to choose a profession, which will make them happy first. So that it was their choice, and not imposed, for example, by me. But knowing about the instability of my profession, of course, this is not my dream. And it does not matter who they will become - they must own the profession that will choose, no matter how they do. And do it well.
—Previously, did you want to ride a motorcycle, then cooled that today?
- Everything is fine. I ride. Of course not in winter. I have Harley Davidson Sportster 48.
—Producers do not put an item in the contract that it is impossible to ride you during filming, as it is dangerous?
- And I ride without producers (laughs).
—Now fashionable zozh, how are you with him?
- Oh, very good, now it was beautiful fried potatoes with mushrooms, with butter, already a drop (laughs). In general, everything is wonderful.
